Rogan says you shouldn’t get medical or scientific advice from himself. He also has world leading doctors and scientists on his program. How is he “irradiating bullshit”?

- nailer 5y agoRogan’s own doctor advised him to treat coronavirus with ivermectin. Just like two hundred members of congress were treated with ivermectin. He mentioned what he was treated with as I imagine the congresspeople would.

- peoplefromibiza 5y ago> Science is certainly not about consensus. You are very confused. Certainty pertains to religions and turns into a cult when it becomes dogmatic. Science is all about consensus around different possibilities. They are called theories, not commandments.
- scantis 5y agoUsually science is the process of finding truth. First by observation then by modelling and then by testing. What you talk about is politics.
- peoplefromibiza 5y agonot *the* truth, but a scientific truth Which is one that the scientific community agrees on . Politics is about having the majority of the votes. Politics is not evaluated on the basis of falsifiability.
- nailer 5y agoScience is about finding the truth. The concept of ‘a truth’ based on ‘consensus science’ has the same relationship to the scientific method as homeopathy.

- peoplefromibiza 5y agoA new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it. . . . An important scientific innovation rarely makes its way by gradually winning over and converting its opponents: it rarely happens that Saul becomes Paul. What does happen is that its opponents gradually die out, and that the growing generation is familiarized with the ideas from the beginning: another instance of the fact that the future lies with the youth. — Max Planck, Scientific autobiography, 1950, p. 33, 97 It means that it took several generations of doctors to reach a consensus around the fact that viruses are actually very dangerous and we can be reasonably sure that the Rogan's objections have already been presented and discarded as bullshit. More than one time. It also means that if Rogan, a man in his middle 50s, spreads disinformation on a platform where a large part of the audience is young, we risk that the future generation will be familiar with his bullshit theories. That's why he shouldn't be allowed to be a popular voice. Believing that science is always correct it's wrong, science gives us ranges, plausible certainties, risk evaluation strategies, but believing that people outside of science can disprove what people of science have studied and discussed for decades, it's idiotic.
- nailer 5y agoYou were asked about the doctors and scientists on the Joe Rogan podcast. How are those doctors and scientists ‘outside science’?
- peoplefromibiza 5y agosimply put: one doctor's opinion is bullshit same as my opinions are bullshit. If a large number of doctors say X is true and Y is bullshit, if I think Y is true and X bullshit, I need the same number of doctors to agree with me to counter the argument.
